Please do not open duplicate bug report, instead nominate the bug report
for series. That is the correct workflow as per SRU process.

I've now nominated this bug for Saucy.

However, since saucy kernel does not support loading early firmware
backporting initramfs-tools fix would break existing system since early
firmware would be generated / included in the initramfs, yet kernel will
not load it.

Backporting such change (kernel + initramfs) from Trusty to Saucy falls
outside of SRU process, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates

At the moment, in Saucy, intel-microcode correctly adds microcode into
the initramfs and uses late loading of microcode.
